How to increase Alexa Rank?

I have a website mexat.com and continuously my Alexa rank decreasing before a month my website Alexa rank was approx 3500 but now it is 4,487 so I am worried about that and want to get Alexa below 2000. So please suggest me what I can do to get good Alexa rank.

Alexa rank basically works on how much traffic your website is receiving. In order to get a better score, you will need more traffic to your site.

One of the best ways to increase traffic is to reach out to communities that are relevant to your website. See if you can find blogs in your industry that have an engaged audience (comments, social shares etc.), see if there are any industry forums you could participate in, have a look on social networks for any groups about your industry, particularly Facebook, LinkedIn discussion groups and Google+ communities. Finding these places with an active audience offers the opportunity to increase traffic.

That can be achieved by integrating yourself into the community. That does not mean joining the group/forum, dropping your link and waiting for clicks - that's not integrating into the community. Integrating means becoming part of the community - help out fellow members, offer bits of advice, produce content or tools that would be of high value to people and so on. Helping the community will bring traffic as a result.

I will say this, however: Alexa is notoriously unreliable and as a general metric, I think it's fairly poor. I wouldn't concern myself with what Alexa has to say about my site, or my clients' for that matter.

When you're reaching out to the communities as I mentioned above, do so to build relationships, not traffic. By building relationships, offering things of worth to the community members and generally being helpful, traffic will follow as a result. Not only that, but that traffic becomes much more qualified and probably has a higher chance of converting.
